Microsoft is bringing the Start Menu back (kind of)

[url=http://www.theverge.com/2014/4/2/5574830/windows-9-start-menu-new-desktop-experience]Millions asked for it, and Microsoft is providing it: the old Start Menu is coming back. Kind of. At its Build conference today, Microsoft announced a new Start Menu that looks like a hybrid of the best of Windows 7 and Windows 8. It's around the same size as the Windows 7 menu, but also features miniature Live Tiles along one side. In the same demonstration, Microsoft also showed a new mode that allows modern Windows 8 apps to run in the desktop environment inside their own windows. It's a return to Windows' roots for Microsoft, and will make a lot of keyboard and mouse users very happy.[/url] As you can see, there's the normal list of programs, as well as Windows 8's tiles. The Menu changes sizes as you add more columns of tiles. The changes will be a part of Windows 9, or whatever the new OS will be called.
